Hi Mummy!  I hope you're feeling better today.  And I hope you don't mind the gentle ribbing.

Looking good Girl...well maybe a little sore and raw around the edges....Hope you are on top of it soon. I know how that feels...if anyone hasn't had facial surgery before let me be the first to say...

Please Note: OUCH!!

Facial surgery hurts...have had upwards of 15 surgeries on my face (hard to tell I know) and they hurt. With an arm or a leg you can immobilise it and stop the pain caused by movement, not so with facial surgery, most of the time we don't realise we are even using them

Take good care of yourself and hopefully the result will be as you wish.

Thanks for the kind words ladies....seems ive missed a couple of days , had some blood pressure  issues that put me back in hospital  both eyes completely  closed up and i could barely  see , 
Vincent of transop came and checked on me ...took some photos and sent them to Dr Cardenas  next thing i was being taken to the clinic
at 12pm Dr Cardenas was there and got things happening the staff were and are great , lucky for google translate though, the çlinic is liike mini hospital looks brand new state of the art
Back at the recovery house now fervently willing  the disappearance of some yapping mutt
It was really strànge the op one moment im just lieing there in the gurney asking some questions  ....next thing i,m aaking where wer're  going
Lol the op had happened it like a flash ,anyway Dr Cardenas said to me that i got really  good results and that i would be very happy with them
Well i didnt see them before the blood pressure  thing set in so i,m in for along wait I'd  say be a least 2 weeks before i look remotely  human again maybe i'll post another ghastly pic without the badaids  ,,,,

Hi Markie,

  Glad you are doing better. I know you  said you had blood pressure issues but I am a bit confused. You said someone took pictures, the doc saw them and you were off back to the hospital. As far as I know you can't tell BP problems with a picture. I kind of had the Idea he could see something wrong with the FFS. Am I missing a piece of the puzzle or just missed the obvious? (I've been known to do that)

Hugs,
   Laurie

I,m still a  bit dispersed when the carer came in to check on me he could see the swelling was getting bad so he took photos and rang the doctor who then asked him to bring me down to the clinic  aparently as i understand it the hbp was contributing to swelling and excess bleeding

  Okay I'll buy that. He could see you were springing leaks. You don't want to lose too much of that red stuff. It will make you dizzy. So you getting all better now? Hurting a little less I hope? I've spent a few days in those hospital places and they aren't a lot of fun usually. It seems each time I go they either take something out or try to kill me (almost literally)

  You follow those doctors orders girl and get all rested and healed up so we can be dazzled by your new beauty.

Hugs,
  Laurie

Hi Laurie i suggested to them to just have me donate blood as i though the problem was my blood  was too thick (hemmocrit)  and my heart was quite happy to keep pumpimg it into the wounds and thus as it had no where to go it just kept filling the ballon so,to speak
ah but they didnt listen to me
But things are on an even keel now ......new found  beauty ...kind words ....☺
Ill settle for easy on the eye androgynous 
Must admit i,m curious and and little afraid of what lies beneath

Hi Markie,

   Okay, as to what lies beneath Hun, I have already been very impressed with how much different you look from your male pictures. It is hard to even imagine the two are of the same person. It doesn't even appear possible. About all I can say about this "improvement" on how you already appear in your avatar could only be classified as beauty. More than what we can see on the outside is the you inside that you let us have glimpses of. That sensitive woman can't be that rough harsh looking man we have seen in the pictures. No the Markie we know and love is that one in your avatar. That is who you really are.

Hugs,
   Laurie
